Hi,

 

I dont have any cameras before i buy i need some infos,

 

Are these possible?

 

1-Fetching JPG snapshots by URL parameters

The URL example is as follows:

http://ip address:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=admin&pwd=xxx

 

2-Here is an example URL on how to set one stream to an MJPEG stream:

http://ip address:port/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=setSubStreamFormat&format=1&usr=admin&pwd=

Don't believe you can do what you want that way directly.

Maybe some sort of script to d/l  first and then transmit to site could work.

No.  The stream to the Arlo servers is encrypted so you can't grab it externally.  The cameras are also not IP cameras.  To get any videos you have to download them from the server.  Also, the wireless cameras do not support snapshots except when live viewing so a manual process.  I have a Python script which can be scheduled on your computer to download automatically but that's the best you can do.
